George Michael
Monkey (Extended Version)
[Intro]
Come on
[Chorus]
Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always givin' into it
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it?
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey (Monkey)
With a monkey? (Monkey, I-e-i-e-i)
[Verse 1]
Oh, I count to ten
But I don't know how and I don't know when
To open my eyes
If you kiss me again
Like you did just now, like you did just then
Just do it again
[Pre-Chorus]
I've had the rest
Now it's time I had the best
So you tell me that you won't do anymore
Well, I'd write your heart a letter
But I think you know me better
If I keep on askin', baby, maybe
I'll get what I'm askin' for
[Chorus]
Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always givin' into it
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it?
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey (Monkey)
With a monkey? (Monkey, I-e-i-e-i)
[Verse 2]
Oh, I hate your friends
But I don't know how and I don't know when
To open your eyes (Open your eyes)
Yes, the monkey's back again
Do you want him now like you did back then?
Don't do it again
[Pre-Chorus]
I tried my best
But your head is such a mess
So I guess that I don't want you anymore
Well, you say you care about me
That you just can't do without me
But you keep on dancin', baby
'Til that monkey has you on the floor
[Chorus]
Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always givin' into it
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it?
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey (Monkey)
With a monkey? (Monkey, I-e-i-e-i)
Why can't you do it?
[Bridge]
(Monkey) Better watch out
Better watch out
Baby, look out
Don't look now
There's a monkey on your back
Watch out
Baby, look out
Don't look now
There's a monkey on you
Watch out
Baby, look out
Don't look now
There's a monkey on your back
Watch out
Baby, look out
Don't look now
There's a monkey on you
[Chorus]
Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always givin' into it
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it?
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey (Monkey)
With a monkey? (Monkey, I-e-i-e-i) Pick it up
Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always givin' into it
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it?
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey (Monkey)
With a monkey? (Monkey, I-e-i-e-i)
[Bridge]
Won't you give me a break
Somebody give me a break now
(Some snare)
I need some more of that bass
Okay, a bit more of the guitars here
Come on, come on, pick it up
Pick it up, yeah
Do the monkey
With a monkey, with a monkey (I-e-i-e-i)
[Chorus]
Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always givin' into it
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it?
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey (Monkey)
With a monkey? (Monkey, I-e-i-e-i)
Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always givin' into it
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it?
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey (Monkey)
With a monkey? (Monkey, I-e-i-e-i)
[Outro]
Always said you want a monkey
I don't want you with a monkey
I don't care if you're with a monkey
Is the monkey on me?
I said, is the monkey on me?
Monkey
